    LIGHT OF THE SUN SEVENFOLD

    Moreover the light of the Moon shall be as the light of the Sun, and the light of the Sun shall be

    sevenfold ... in the day that the Lord binds up the breach of His people ... - Isa 30.26.

    What meaneth this? -- the fool will ask; the answer is the Teachers task. The Teacher deciphers this

    for us in four simple steps, while employing the entire Bible. Man shall not live by bread alone, but byevery word that proceeds out of the mouth of God (Mt 4.4). The way that the Teacher explains the

    mystery is like this:

    1) He identifies the sun.

    2) He assigns a numerical value to the dimension of the sun.

    3) He designates the New Sun.

    4) Finally, He determines the numerical value of the New Sun.

    When the dimension of the New Sun is seen to be seven times as large as the dimension of the oldsun, then we will know that we have read Him right. Does this seem logical to you? First of all, What

    is the sun?

    1) IDENTIFYING THE SUN.

    A) In Genesis, Chapter 37, verses nine and ten, Jacob is the sun, and Leah is the moon, and

    the twelve Patriarchs constitute the stars. Collectively, as you know, sun, moon, and stars together

    constitute the Heaven. These chosen people of God, who are the Heaven, are also the government of

    Israel. Jacob was promised to be the continuance of the fulfillment of the promise to Abram. He was

    the leader of the tribe of Israel; therefore, Heaven equals the Government. The subjects of the

    government are the congregation of Israel, which followed Jacob into Egypt in 1850 BC. Sixty-six

    souls are listed to accompany him (Gen 46.26), and they were met there by Joseph and his two sons,

    Manassah and Ephraim. The seed of his body, in Egypt, now totals seventy persons (Ex 1.5); besides

    many servants not of the body. Thirteen is the number of the elements of Heaven mentioned; and therest made up the Earth. Therefore, Earth is a symbol to designate the nation of Israel. And also,

    frequently, Heaven and Earth, which is Government and Subjects, symbolizes Israel. The context

    makes very clear whether Earth equals only the subjects, or the government and the subjects together.For at times, the Earth is in captivity, or else, being oppressed by superior foes, so that, the Heaven(Government) seems to be nonexistent.

    But this is too easy! Pagan nations are also represented as Heaven and Earth. God wants to see if you

    are interested in Wisdom. Heaven and Earth equals Babylon (Isa 13 & 14), and also Edom (Isa 34),

    and the nation of Israel (Isa 24.19,23; Joel 2.10, 31). But Rome was not built in a day, and neither did

    Israel become Heaven and Earth, in its final form, in one generation. Look at the development of the

    nation.

    B) Moses mediated the law and the moon was changed from Leah (Gen 37.9-10; 2057 BC) into

    the Levitical priesthood (1626 BC). Samuel anointed David king, and the sun was changed from the

    Patriarch Jacob to the king of the house of David. Gods covenant with the house of David is everlasting[And, Iesous had the key of David in AD 67; Rev 3.7]. The stars were converted from the twelve

    Patriarchs into prophets when Joseph began to interpret dreams. Now for the proof of all of this

    theorizing.

    C) Joel, the son of Pethuel, foretells the fall of Judah to Babylon in 588 BC by the phrases the

    sun grows dark, and the moon grows dark (2.10). If the sun is the king, then this would be

    Zedekiah. And, the moon grows dark represents the Levitical priesthood going into captivity for

    2/5

    seventy years. The stars diminish their brightness depicts the prophets Daniel, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel

    all going into captivity. The symbolism is holding up pretty good.

    D) Later, Joel prophesies about Titus and the Roman army destroying Jerusalem and the temple

    in AD 70. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon to blood (2.31). Josephus records thatAntipas was of the royal lineage, and was murdered by John of Gischala. The sun to darkness, in AD

    66. Simon, the son of Gioras, turned the moon to blood when he killed a good number of priests, in AD69. The stars are not mentioned in this prophecy because Caiaphas was the last Jewish prophet, being

    the high priest that year (AD 32), he prophesied of Iesus death for the sins of the nation. Our theory is

    holding up very well.

    E) The prophet Zechariah describes the fall of Jerusalem, and the conversion of the Jews, like

    this: And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of favor and

    supplication; then they will look on Me whom they pierced (12.10). Iesous states that the fulfillment is

    in the future when Revelation was written (Rev 1.7), which was in AD 67. Zechariah goes on to say that

    there would be a great mourning (when the temple was destroyed) in the house of David (sun/king), and

    the house of Nathan (star/prophet), and the houses of Levi (priest) and Shimei (scribe) who equaled the

    priesthood (moon). Together these constitute the Heaven (Government). He goes on to mention the

    mourning in all the houses that remain, which is obviously the Earth. Titus came to subdue the rebelsof Israel (Heaven and Earth), who had rebelled against God and Caesar. They were mourning when

    they lost the war, and their temple. This is solid proof, in my estimation, that the sun is the king of

    Israel. But what is the dimension of the sun?

    2) THE DIMENSION OF THE SUN.

    ... and on the cloud sat One like the Son of man ... and the earth was reaped ... And the winepress was

    trampled outside the city, and blood came out ... up to the horses bridles, for 1600 furlongs - Rev

    14.14,16,20.

    The Teacher has not disappointed us! 1600 furlongs is the dimension of the sun, who was Antipas.

    1600 furlongs is 200 miles. The city of Dan is 100 miles north of Jerusalem, and Cela (Petra) is 100miles south of Jerusalem. These are the boundaries of Israel at the height of her glory. This is the light

    of the sun (Antipas), or the extent of his nations greatest limits. The resurrection, described by Iesous,

    is connected to the fall of Jerusalem, which was most miserable. But now, who is the New Sun?

    3) THE NEW SUN.

    The key of the house of David I will lay on His shoulder - Isa 22.22.

    ... thegovernmentshall be upon Hisshoulder... - Isa 9.6.These things says He who is holy ... He who has the key of David - Rev 3.7.

    Iesous is the New Sun of the New Heaven! He is King of kings and Lord of lords (Rev 19.16). He

    is also our High Priest (Heb 8.1), and so, He is the New Moon of the New Heaven also. Added tothis He is the Morning Star or the New Star in the New Heaven. This makes Iesous the LIVING

    PROPHET!

    ... the light of the Moon (Iesous) is as the light of the Sun (Iesous) - Is 30.26.

    Things that are equal to the same thing are equal to each other.

    We learned this in freshman Algebra.

    The Moon equals Iesous, and the Sun equals Iesous; therefore the Moon equals the Sun.

    All that remains to be seen is the dimension of the New Sun. Things are all falling into place for us,

    which is described, And we know that all things work together for good to those who love God, to those

    who are called according to His purpose (Rom 8.28).

    4) THE DIMENSION OF THE NEW SUN.

    ... showed me the great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God ... The city is laid

    out as a square; its length is as great as its breadth. And he measured the city with the reed: 12,000

    furlongs ... - Rev 21.10,16.

    The Teacher did it! The Holy City is 12,000 furlongs, or 1500 miles. This is exactly seven and one-half

    times the old sun, of 1600 furlongs. (Isnt Iesous sneaky! Did you notice that He promised a Sun

    seven times as big, but produced one seven and one-half times as large. Praise the Lord!) Iesous is the

    King of the Holy City, and the High Priest, and the Morning Star; or, the Living Prophet. Iesous is the

    New Heaven. And the New Covenant members are the New Earth. Consider these for the twelve gates:

    NORTH EAST SOUTH WEST

    Italy (Rome) Parthia Elam Libya

    Macedonia (Phillipi) Mesopotamia Arabia (Cela) Crete

    Pontus Media Egypt (Hieropolis) Sicily (Syracuse)

    These form a city approximately 1500 miles square. (See: Acts 2.9-11, where the Jews at the observance

    of Pentecost are listed to be from these countries.) These areas contained the kingdom of God in AD 70,

    after Jerusalem fell to Rome. This is where the New Jerusalem was set up after the resurrection in AD

    77.

    5) THE FOUNDING OF THE KINGDOM OF GOD.

    The day of the firstfruits, under the law of Moses, was the first of fifty days until Pentecost. Iesous

    began His fleshly ministry, in the fifteenth year of Tiberius, which was in AD 28. (28 + 50 = AD 78.)

    Zechariah depicts a period of terrible mourning (12.10-14) when Israel saw Me whom they pierced.

    This sight was brought about by the destruction of the temple, which is recorded for us:

    the Holy Spirit indicating this, that The Way (Iesous) into the Holiest of All (Heaven) is not yet made

    manifest (evident) while the first tabernacle (Holy Place - see vs 2) is still standing - Heb 9.8.

    Assuredly, I say to you, not one stone shall be left here upon another, that shall not be thrown down -

    Mt 24.2.

    The sight of Me whom they have pierced, is also described in relation to another event. God lovestwo witnesses! He even describes this more than once.

    Then two will be in the field; one will be taken and the other left. Two will be grinding at the mill; one

    will be taken and the other left - Mt 24.40-41.

    For the earnest expectation of the Creation (Heaven and Earth = Israel) eagerly waits for the revealing of

    the sons of God. For the Creation (Israel) was subjected to futility, not willingly, but because of Him who

    subjected her in hope; because the Creation (Israel) herself also will be delivered from the bondage of

  • 8/8/2019 Light Sun 7 Fold

    4/5

    corruption into the glorious liberty of the children of God ... even we ourselves groan within ourselves,

    eagerly waiting for the Adoption (resurrection), the Redemption of our Body - Rom 8.19-23.

    ... and they also (Jews) if they do not continue in unbelief ... And so all Israel will be saved ... but

    concerning the election they are beloved for the sake of the fathers. For the gifts and the calling of Godare irrevocable (Rom 11.23, 26, 28-29).

    How did the kingdom of God continue after the resurrection of all believers? These quotes provide the

    answer. Iesous, and His students, had been proclaiming a resurrection for forty-nine years. Surely

    everyone had heard the word. And then, to see someone disappear, who had been right beside you a

    moment before, would be shocking! This would bring to your mind the message continually spread

    abroad for half a century concerning the resurrection of life. Now -- you would believe! -- and mourn.

    But God had the solution to the problem:

    And I will pour on the house of David and on the inhabitants of Jerusalem the Spirit of Favor and

    Supplication; then they will look on Me whom they pierced - Zech 12.10.

    Just as Iesous students were dipped with the Holy Spirit, in AD 32; and just as Cornelius and friends

    were dipped with the Holy Spirit, in AD 35; so, in like manner, the remnant of Israel was dipped withthe Holy Spirit, in (probably) AD 78.

    6) THE NEW JERUSALEM TODAY.

    Iesous Revelation contains the history of the Holy City until the end of time. Chapters 6 & 8, are the

    record of Pagan Rome, from AD 78-476. Odoacer invaded Rome, and unlike all the previous invaders,

    who were nomadic tribes, he came to stay. He even named himself the emperor. In the East, the empire

    remained in place until Muhammud II overcame them in AD 1453. This is described in great detail in

    Chapter 9. The Primacy of the Pope, and the 1260 days of murder and mayhem, are pictured in

    Chapter 11. The Ten Papal States overthrew the kingdom in May, 1860; and the capital, Papal Rome, in

    September, 1870. The Millennium is described to be when the Pope falls, which began with the fall in

    one day (Rev 18.8). One day symbolizes the year: June 4, 1859 to May, 1860. The tenth of the cityfell, which was the Papal State of Lombardy; and in the same hour the Two Witnesses (God and the

    Lamb) were raised back up in Heaven (church). The same hour (15 days) is dated from the second

    battle for Lombardy. Magenta was first, on June 4th, and Solferino followed on June 24th. We add 15

    days to June 24th, and the Millennium began in July, 1859 -- and died in July, 1959. Therefore, the

    thousand years is symbolic for 100 years. Now we are in the second Dark Ages, which so many

    expositors have properly interpreted in the past, and Gog and Magog rule the roost. That is, as long as

    they remain subject to the Papacy and the Pope (Beast and False Prophet).

    Each of these periods contained the New Jerusalem. First, the Roman Empire, and secondly, the

    Constantinople Empire ruling in conjunction with the Papal Empire, over all Europe, and much of theworld, even reaching to the Phillipines. The Millennium spread the joy of the Popes fall around the

    world. Newspapers in France, and England, and the United States, all had lead articles about the greatnews, which were reprinted in the Millennial Harbinger of 1870.

    Gog and Magog, subject to the Pope, have surpassed the extent of the ground covered by the Millennium.

    Hundreds of nations and tribes now have the Bible, in their own language, in one form or another. New

    Jerusalem is underground in this territory, and so, Israel today is worldwide, and not limited to the Jews

    of the Middle East. The Bible fails to mention the modern nation of Israel anywhere. God declared them

    dead! -- and dead they will stay!

    I will bring forth descendants from Jacob, and from Judah an heir to My mountains ... But you

    (Judah/Jacob) are those who forsake the Lord, who forget My mountain, who prepare a table for Gad

    (Troop), and furnish a drink offering for Meni (Number) ... You shall leave your name as a curse to My

    chosen; for the Lord God WILL SLAY YOU, and call His servants by another name (besides Jacob [Israel]

    and Judah) ... For behold, I create New Heavens and a New Earth;AND THE FORMER SHALL NOT BEREMEMBERED OR COME TO MIND - Isa 65.9,11,15,17.

    But now in the Anointed Iesous you who once were far offhave been brought near by the blood of the

    Anointed. For He himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall ofseparation (in the temple), having abolished in His flesh the enmity (warfare), that is, the law of

    commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himselfone new man from the two, thusmaking peace - Eph 2.13-15.
